Queens Crap: Sidewalk parking in Woodside

Sidewalk parking in Woodside

"Another constant sidewalk blocker is Skillman Plumbing on 54th St. in Woodside. When I walk down the street during working hours I am often forced to walk in the street. This picture, taken from 39th Ave. is typical, though sometimes there are even more vehicles." - Anonymous

Changing signs one night and giving tickets the next day.

Overdevelopment - putting dozens of families where there were only a few.

Reducing speed limits to make driving unbearable.

The powers that be want to create a bicycling European utopia...

Either we look like china, or more likely Detroit...; Tuesday, September 15, 2015

But it just don't rhyme!; Tuesday, September 15, 2015
Anonymous said...: Did this person send this to 311? Why post to Qns Crp? These are obviously off-hours limo drivers. Too many cars in NYC.; Tuesday, September 15, 2015

In Europe the distances are much shorter.
Heck in some European cities you don't even need a car!
Now add the self driving cars, automatic emergency braking and cars and driving as we know it will be history.; Tuesday, September 15, 2015

Anonymous said...: Too many cars/too many commercial vehicles parked on the street at night/too many people savings spots with cones or garbage cans/too many people renting illegal basements or attics who own cars/too many illegal curb cuts. Where does it all end; Tuesday, September 15, 2015

And now we got 2 more hipster limo services in Lyft and Gett. This will be the cause of vehicle over-saturation and more assholes parking on the sidewalks and double and triple parking.; Tuesday, September 15, 2015

We are getting plenty of them, and the taxpayers are driving their cars to the Carolina's and Florida.
Does anyone know how many Syrian migrants we are getting dumped with.
They said 10,000 or so. That means 100,000+
I don't think many of them will be driving.
It may work out in the end, sort of like Detroit.; Tuesday, September 15, 2015

Anonymous said...: @[Was] doesn't city council pass a law? There IS a law. Enforcement requires a call to 311, or your local PD Community Liaison officer, which will then show up days later and either issue a warning (which may have an effect for a day or so,) or sees no violating condition. What we need is a situation-driven response, not a complaint-driven response, from the NYPD. I am told that while they can ticket cars for expired licenses, they can't spontaneously respond to this sort of thing because they might get a "real" call. Say what?; Wednesday, September 16, 2015
